The Salem Witch – Finale

This is the end and I realize it is a bit of a whirlwind romance but hey it was the late 1800’s – things happened quickly back then. Lifespans were shorter. LOL Again, all due respect to people who practice witchcraft and my Irish brethren.

As he was about to unlock the prison cell, she whispered,

“Boil, boil, toil and trouble

Grind his bones and make them double

Make his erection limp before me

And thence unable to adore me.”

With that she shoved the wad of bread in her mouth and took a swig of water. She let the bread fall from her lips in its mushy state and it did give the appearance in the dark as though she was foaming at the mouth. And Tommy, well even though he wasn’t very bright, he understood what she had whispered and the fear that possessed him along with the unattractiveness of a girl foaming at the mouth did indeed make his manhood vanish limply. He cowered out of the cell, convinced that she was indeed a witch.

The next day dawned and Brigitte found herself arising to an open door cell. There was a man outside of it staring at her in the most alarming manner. Aye indeed if she was a witch, she might have suspected he was a warlock for she felt as though he could see right through her clothing.

“Can I be helping you sir?” she asked him, after eyeing him up and realizing he was in fact the best-looking man she had ever seen. “Are ye here to take me poor body like the thug from last night?”

“No, lass, I’ll not be taking your body unless you be wanting me to. Name’s James Parker, I’m the sheriff and the man you spoke of has been summarily dismissed for his part in locking you in this cell. I got the girls to confess and the judge to drop the charges with the agreement that I would see to it that your punishment was carried out appropriately.”

“Well I thank ye kind sir, for the botherin, but as I have nay committed a crime I canna see why I would accept any form of punishment.”

“Oh no? Well though I did fire the lout that bothered you last night and he did most likely deserve the “spell” you put on him. He was very scared and I doubt that he will be able to enjoy the pleasures of a woman for quite some time.”

With that Brigitte smiled and chuckled a little.

“See, just the fact that you find that funny tells me that you need to be taken in hand. You have been on your own far too long lass. You need someone to look after you and keep you in line.”

“Oh? And I suppose you’ll be thinking that you are the man for the job?” Brigitte asked, her eyes flashing with humor and lust, for the man was leaning his tall frame against the desk, his large arms crossed at the elbows and his muscular thighs on display for all the world to see.

“I am, you shameless woman.” James said as he took two strides with his long legs, propelling him forward into her cell. Brigitte stepped back, being a stranger to men, she was admittedly a wee bit nervous. He took her in his arms and held her for just a moment. Then, after staring intently into her eyes he planted a very long and very firm kiss on her delicate mouth.

 “That young lady was for the spell you put on Tommy.” He kissed her again a little more firmly, claiming her mouth for none but him.

In between kisses she managed to gulp out a question, “What was that for?” she gasped.

“Aye lass, that was for the other crime you committed.” James said to her as he took her again in his arms.

“Beggin yer pardon sir but I have no knowledge of this other crime.” Brigitte said while snaking her arms about his neck.

“Aye, lass, you committed thievery I am afraid and your punishment is life in prison,” he said and his eyes were downcast as if the prospect frightened and saddened him.

Brigitte started to push away, terrified, “But there must be some mistake I have ne’er stolen a thing in me life. I swear it.”

“Aye ye did lass, ye stole my heart when I first saw you matching wits with Yvette and I am afraid you will now be the prisoner of my heart, enslaved with a little gold band, iffin you’ll have me.”

“Aye, I will Sheriff,” she said and this time she kissed him promptly on the lips!
